46 47n : 11 36w
At 13.00 today we had covered 333nm in two days -
not bad at all (high 5's all round)
We have a changeable breeze at the moment requiring
hourly sail changes to keep up the boat speed. The showers of this morning have
passed to leave a beautiful day (not quite shorts n flip-flops though) Our plan
is to keep north of the rheum line to allow for the westerly winds which are
predicted later in the week.
Another satellite phone call to our man in Brixham
has sorted our battery charging problems, I just wish we could fix the wind
instruments too which are costing us miles every day. Not to worry though
we are still here and having fun now the seasickness for both of us is passed -
mostly over the side !
Must go Matt's calling for another sail
change.......
